Facial Skin Rejuvenation With Laser DOT Therapy

The destructive effects of aging can leave the face with fine lines, wrinkles, and brown spots. These symptoms of skin damage can be accelerated by exposure to the sun and environmental elements, sometimes leading to a prematurely aged appearance. Laser Dermal Optical Thermolysis (DOT) therapy can erase these early signs of aging by rejuvenating the skin and restoring a youthful, natural complexion.

What Is Laser DOT Therapy?

Laser DOT therapy uses a SmartXide DOT laser for facial skin rejuvenation. After a topical anesthesia is applied to the treatment area, the laser is moved across the skin. The DOT treatment damages small areas of tissue and stimulates collagen production in those areas without affecting the surrounding skin. This causes a reaction in which the damaged outer skin eventually peels off, revealing healthier, smoother, and more youthful skin. Laser DOT therapy treatments take less than one hour to complete and have minimal downtime or discomfort. Each treatment is customized to the patient’s needs, and many patients need only a single treatment to achieve their desired results.

The Rejuvenating Abilities of Laser DOT Therapy

Laser DOT therapy has powerful rejuvenating abilities that counteract the effects of aging. Men and women may be candidates if they have visible signs of aging or skin damage such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, brown spots, freckles, redness, and acne scars. Laser DOT therapy can effectively treat all of these conditions and may be safely used to refresh the skin of the face as well as the neck and hands. With this treatment, patients can successfully gain a smooth, bright, and rejuvenated complexion.
